Welcome to the SPT or Spore Petition Thread. Here we discus and share ideas for a possible Spore expansion. We have been around for a year now and since, improved our mission greatly. We have sent in our ideas on improvable areas in Spore to the Maxis Teams. We plan on doing so once more.

The SPT's mission is to do a few things. Make a community carved Petition to improve Spore, have logical ideas sent in an added to the Archive that contains all the ideas you would like to see added, and to help maker a better game for us. Though the task is not easy, we have already had somewhat of an effect on the community, and with more support we could get together and get ourselves what we want.

Important: The following is to explain how the funding for the game or expansion could work. To some this is a very confusing part of the concept. So its only fair if we can explain it a little for you just in case you need education in this field.

In order to best place these ideas into Spore, we have come up with a plan in order to ensure that the development and implementation of these ideas is smooth and constant, not too fast and not too slow. This plan will contain the following three-point strategy:

What's a petition?: A request made for something desired, such as new parts or a bug fix (in this case).

Why were your fist posts on the thread spam?: We were defending our blind cause. At the time we were blindly "Protesting" into which was the wrong idea of what we were trying to do. We fixed that a long time ago, don't worry about it.

Why did you make a protest?: To be honest I got the word "Petition" and "Protest" mixed up..

An advanced guide to adventures! This thread is extremely helpful, is with your Galactic Adventure's questions. That's not the half of it, down there is a database of almost all adventure tips and tricks to not only make your adventure's good, but to get them played! I highly recommend you view this thread.

The 16th adventure trailer shop! Their shop is dedicated to enhancing your adventure advertising by making quality adventure trailers. Their work is absolutely stunning. They can make all kinds of trailers with even resultions up to 1080P of resolution comes standard! I ordered here and was pleased!

Chloro Signatures is a signature shop run by ghostofillusion. They will provide forum signatures, userbars, logos, avatars and wallpapers on request. .

The VCCT or Vibrant Colors Contest Thread, is like a never ending create-off. It's where you and other players create creations/empires and fight each other.. though you are scored on your creations, you have to keep creating! Or you will be engulfed by war. Believe me, its fun.

Project Reach is a project/clan that makes Halo creations. They are a relatively new clan run by the same person who runs the SPT! Go down there and make some Reach creations!

Want a building set for your species, but feel as if you lack architectural excellence?
How about a collection of creatures to live on your sentient planet but have no mind on Xenology?
Do you have theses skills but you just lack inspiration?
Or maybe you are just curious to see our take on your creativity? Request whatever-ed you like, we will make it!

This petition is without a doubt the most reasonable add on there can be. It will bring us a FanFic section, to discuss stories, Grox, and anything related to spore in general making it a very good idea, check it out! Evolution Works: Ideas for an Improved Creature StageThis is yet another petition that talks about improvements to the creature stage.

To keep this great experience known as Spore alive, Maxis needs to reach out to the original fans. Us the PC owners. Not the little Will owners and DS owners.

I believe Maxis has actually released more Spore-based software for the PC than for any other console or cellular device.

I have been thinking of ways to benefit the fans and Maxis-EA. One way to fix all our recent problems is not in a patch, but in an expansion. If they plan on adding Flora Editor, Water stage, Ect. Add it within the expansion, fixes within the expansion.This way we all get what we want, and EA-Maxis get their money. Without using to much money. They plan on spore 2? Not yet! If EA-Maxis were smart they would do this, it would benefit them very much. There is almost no way this idea can go wrong.

They have not said they plan on making "Spore 2."

As for money, as long as the Sims survives, Maxis will probably stay safely afloat.

IF YOU ARE PROTESTING SPORE WHY THE HECK ARE YOU ON A SITE DEDICATED TO SPORE?

Why can't we all be friends in the Black Fall Thread
YOU! Yes, You there! Reading this? Can you make a signature?I'm taking that as a "Yes". PM me (or SilentEpiphany) if you feel like making a sig.Kafka's "death sentence"
